Frequently asked questions

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), is a technology that allows you to make voice calls using a broadband Internet connection instead of a regular (or analog) phone line. Our VoIP services allow you to call anyone who has a telephone number – including local, long distance, mobile, and international numbers. While some VoIP services only work over your computer or a special VoIP phone, our services allow you to use a traditional phone connected to a VoIP adapter located on the router.

You do not need a phone line to utilize our VoIP services. The phone service is through the internet.

Our VoIP service features Caller ID, Call Forwarding, 3-Way Calling, Voicemail to Email, Call Screening, Emergency Calling, and Unlimited calls to the 48 contiguous states.
